Freezer pitcher

Abstract

A freezer pitcher comprises a container having an open top with a generally annular interior wall and a generally annular exterior wall radially spaced apart to form a cavity therebetween. A freezable liquid is disposed within the cavity for maintaining the container at a cool temperature for a determinable time interval, so as to keep a beverage placed within the container cool. A structure is extendable from an annular base member on a bottom end of the container, for removing ice formed upon the exterior wall of the container.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A freezer pitcher comprising: a container having an open top with a generally annular interior wall and a generally annular exterior wall radially spaced apart to form a cavity therebetween;   a freezable liquid disposed within said cavity for maintaining said container at a cool temperature for a determinable time interval, so as to keep a beverage placed within said container cool; and   an annular base member on a bottom end of said container, so a to stabilize said container upon a horizontal support surface;   said container having a plugged access opening in said exterior wall near said open top, so that said freezable liquid can be replaced when needed.   
     
     
       2. A freezer pitcher comprising: a container having an open top with a generally annular interior wall and a generally annular exterior wall radially spaced apart to form a cavity therebetween;   a freezable liquid disposed within said cavity for maintaining said container at a cool temperature for a determinable time interval, so as to keep a beverage placed within said container cool;   an annular base member on a bottom end of said container, so as to stabilize said container upon a horizontal support surface; and   means extendable from said annular base member for removing ice formed upon said exterior wall of said container.   
     
     
       3. The freezer pitcher as recited in claim 2, wherein: said ice removing means includes a spring-loaded retrieval spool mounted within said annular base member, a retractable cord extending from said spring-loaded retrieval spool and a small ice scraper on a free end of said retractable cord.   
     
     
       4. The freezer pitcher as recited in claim 3, further includes an ice scraper catch built into said annular base member, so that when said retractable cord is automatically pulled back and wound about said spring-loaded retrieval spool, said small ice scraper will be locked into a stored position in said ice scraper catch.
